About Nancy
Nancy Elliot is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 30 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship trouble, grief, or major life changes. Her tone is direct and compassionate, aimed at parents and adults looking for steady support during hard times.
Nancy offers clear, practical help for problems like depression, anger, addiction, and low self-esteem. She also addresses issues tied to family of origin, blended families, caregiving stress, and cancer-related concerns.
How Nancy works
Sessions tend to center on finding coping skills and next steps rather than long theory talks. Her style blends acceptance and commitment ideas with cognitive behavior tools and mindfulness. She uses client-centered listening to understand each person's values and goals.
Dialectical behavior skills and motivational interviewing techniques are added when a structured skills approach fits the situation. Nancy aims to help people improve communication, set boundaries, and manage intense emotions. She supports parents navigating parenting stress and people coping with abandonment, divorce, or domestic violence histories.
Work often includes practical communication strategies and problem-focused plans. Her practice is based in Texas and delivered in English. People can expect straightforward guidance, short-term goal planning, and ongoing coaching when needed.
Sessions are arranged by scheduling after completing a brief matching questionnaire and selecting available times.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people get clearer about what matters to them and take steps aligned with those values, even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and building a trusting relationship so clients can find their own solutions.Nancy treats the choice of approach as a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjust methods over time. The plan can combine skills training, values work, and coaching so the approach fits the situation rather than forcing a single method.
Online therapy offers flexible options to fit busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face work when visual connection matters. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let people send updates between sessions or use brief coaching when a message is enough. These formats make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving, and other responsibilities while still accessing licensed professionals and consistent therapeutic support.
